Chapter 46: Grandpa doesn't come back

"Ah, Xuanxuan! You don't know your mom anymore? Zhang Min was anxious to faint, Wang Xuanxuan hurriedly said: "Don't, don't, know, know!" ”

The three of them looked at Wang Xuanxuan, and Wang Dazhuang asked tentatively, "Do you know each other?" Are you stupid? ”

"Dad, what are you expecting me to do stupidly!" Wang Xuanxuan said helplessly: "Be careful of my grandfather scolding you!" ”

Hearing this, everyone was relieved. "This kid, scare us to death!"

"Isn't that what my mom asked me? I just played to the rhythm of the TV a little bit. Wang Xuanxuan's exhausted half body was lying on the kang, and she didn't want to move. On this day, it is too ...... It's scary. ”

Really, what happened on this day, Wang Xuanxuan felt that the impact on herself was too great. What a life, no! Two lives are gone!

The reason is that it is caused by ordinary talking.

"Xuanxuan, what's going on?" Grandpa asked. "I don't seem to be moving when I hear it."

Wang Xuanxuan learned it all and said with emotion: "I really responded to that sentence: good words are three points warm, and bad words hurt people and are cold in June!" The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention! ”

Zhang Min also sighed next to him: "I pity the children of the two families, so that one has no father and the other has no mother." What can be done after that. ”

"Who's to say it isn't!"

Grandpa couldn't bear to regret it: "If I knew this, I would have recognized the bud thing." There are no such things. ”

"Dad, look at what you said, what does this have to do with you. Besides, I haven't heard of anything else that I don't do! Zhang Min said disapprovingly.

"What am I afraid of as an old man? It's a bit ugly! Why bother to kill people! ”

"Every individual has a personal life! Could it be that if there is no such thing, they will be fine? Sooner or later. Zhang Min said to Wang Dazhuang again: "You say, fortunately, we bought tomorrow's tickets, otherwise we wouldn't have rushed." ”

"You're leaving tomorrow?" Grandpa has experienced so many ups and downs over the years, but he still thinks about his children very much. "Why don't you stay two more days? Leaving so soon? ”

Wang Xuanxuan stood up strangely. "You haven't told Grandpa yet?"

Wang Dazhuang patted his head. "Oops, I forgot, didn't say it."

"And what have you been doing all afternoon?" Wang Xuanxuan looked at her parents and was speechless.

"One sentence in the east, one sentence in the west, forget about this stubble." Zhang Min also felt a little funny, "You said this memory, what else can you do!" ”

Grandpa looked at everyone and asked strangely, "What are you talking about?" ”

"Xuanxuan, you say!"

"Yes, yes, Xuanxuan said. Xuanxuan, you were brought up by your grandfather, and as soon as you say it, your grandfather agrees. Wang Min and Wang Dazhuang both winked at Wang Xuanxuan.

"I'll just say it." Wang Xuanxuan sat up and took a few steps to her grandfather's side. "Grandpa, we have to leave tomorrow, and the tickets are all gone. I got a new job, I earned some money, and I wanted to take my parents on a trip, but the ticket was non-refundable. ”

"Okay, let's go if you want to, let's go." Grandpa looked a little lonely, and he didn't look at Wang Xuanxuan, just stared at the grape trellis outside the window. "The grapes should be ripe in a few days, so don't forget to come back and eat them."

This grape trellis was specially planted by Zhang Min's grandfather when he was a child. I heard that my family was poor at that time and couldn't afford to buy fruit all year round, so my grandfather tried to get seedlings and build a grape trellis, and since then, I have been able to eat a few bunches of grapes every year. It's really the kind of grain that is ripe, and which grain is pulled down and eaten; Every time I was careful, I went to see if it was ripe several times a day.

Speaking of which, this grape is older than Wang Xuanxuan. Wang Xuanxuan also looked forward to the ripening of grapes when she was a child.

Wang Xuanxuan counted with her fingers, and said with a regretful face: "I don't know if I can make it." If you don't dare to go, it's a pity if you can't eat. ”

"Don't eat the grapes anymore?" Grandpa muttered. "You can't eat such fresh grapes outside, come back and eat them. How can the grapes not come back to eat now? ”

After speaking, he muttered to himself: "Last year, the soil was buried shallowly, I thought this old guy was the same as me, or he would be useless." I didn't think about it, it came alive in the spring, but you didn't eat it. Alas! If you don't eat, don't eat, if you don't eat, I'll eat, I'll eat. ”

Wang Xuanxuan felt sad for a while, her grandfather's body may not be able to stand the work in this countryside, otherwise she has never heard of the shallow burial of the soil for so many years.

Wang Xuanxuan held back the tears in her eyes, squeezed out a smile and said, "Grandpa, why don't you ask us where we are going to travel?" ”

"Where are you going? It's not the same where you go, it's not all people, houses, roads, trees. ”

"We're going to Shandong, Shandong Rongcheng." After Wang Xuanxuan finished speaking, her eyes blinked and looked at her grandfather.

Sure enough, "Where do you think you're going?" ”

"Shandong Rongcheng!" Wang Xuanxuan said again and again: "And I also bought four plane tickets." ”

"4?"

Wang Xuanxuan looked at her grandfather's hands that had been doing farm work for a long time, and her chapped hands began to tremble. Said slowly: "Grandpa, let's go back together." ”

"Huh? And me? ”

Seeing his grandfather's stunned appearance, Zhang Min gave Wang Xuanxuan a pestle angrily. "This kid, you can't say good things, and you still tease your grandfather! Big is no small! ”

Wang Dazhuang smiled: "Dad, now your granddaughter can paint, and she can make a lot of money." We bought the tickets, and let's go back to our hometown in Shandong together. ”

"Yes, string relatives, Dad, don't you always think about the two children of my uncle's family? To be honest, I haven't seen these two cousins yet, so let's recognize each other when we go back this time. Zhang Min said.

didn't think about it, but Wang Xuanxuan's grandfather stood up suddenly. "No return! I'm not going back! ”

Everyone was stunned, and Zhang Min asked strangely, "Why Dad?" I remember when I was a child, every year during the Chinese New Year, you wanted to go back to your hometown for the New Year, but it didn't ......"

"Yes! Didn't go back! Grandpa looked up at the map on the wall and fell into deep thought. At that time, my family was poor, I couldn't eat enough, I couldn't afford the travel expenses, and I was not willing to pay for it, so I always thought that I was saving, saving, and next year would be fine. Next year, wait for next year, year after year, but this life, since I came to the Northeast, the time my sister died, I went back, and I never went back. ”

"Isn't that just right this time......"

"I didn't go back when your uncle didn't go back, what are you going back to do now!" Grandpa's eyes were staring at the direction of the Shandong family on the map, and he said affectionately and lonely: "My hometown has already sent a letter to someone, and your uncle said it before he died, so he should not be my brother!" I'm not going back, I'm not going back! No face back! ”

Grandpa may be really old, looking at the map, as if there is a person, and said to himself: "Brother, it's not that I forgot Ben!" It's not that I don't care about you, I really can't get you! I don't have that much ability, where are you here to stay? What to eat? I can't eat enough, I don't dare to let you drag your family and your mouth here! What if you starve to death? I'm just thinking about earning money, saving money, and when I've saved enough, you'll be able to come. But I've been farming all my life, and I haven't saved any money! ”

As he spoke, Grandpa cried.

Zhang Min also cried, "Dad, how can I blame you? Over the years, you have been a father and a mother, and you have provided for me and my brother to go to school alone, how can any children go to school in our village! You are not in good health, you have had three surgeries, and the famine was saved from your mouth little by little! Not to mention when I was a child, when I had Xuanxuan, our family couldn't eat white noodles! It's not your fault! Not to blame! ”

"Nope! Blame me! Blame me! It's useless to blame me, I came out, but I couldn't bring them! Everyone comes from one family to another, just us, I don't have the face to see my brother when I die! ”

"Dad! Don't say that! It's all our incompetence, so let you provide us with a show! ”

Grandpa touched a handful of tears, walked to the back room, took out a small box from the bottom of the box, rubbed it several times, and handed it to Wang Xuanxuan tremblingly, "This box was brought from my hometown back then, you go back, take this, and let it go home for me to see." ”

Wang Xuanxuan took the box, very light. Tentatively asked, "Grandpa, is this empty?" ”

"Yes, it's empty."

Wang Xuanxuan looked at her grandfather blankly, "...... are you?"

"I don't have the face to go back in my life, you can help me pack some soil from my hometown and come back." After Grandpa finished speaking, he looked at the map again.

Grandpa has saved a lot in his life, only the map, and if it is broken, it will have to be replaced with a new one. Grandpa had a habit of standing in front of the map when he was tired, fine, and in a bad mood, and kept looking at it like this.

For a while, everyone with low air pressure was silent. Wang Dazhuang also turned his head and wiped away his tears.

Wang Xuanxuan knew when she was a child that her grandfather was a very strong and tough man, if it weren't for the heavy blow, I am afraid that her grandfather would really not be able to go back, even if he wanted to go back very much.

It seems that the only way to do that is it!

It was originally intended to be a surprise, but it seems that it can't be hidden! Anyway, happy in the morning and happy in the evening!

"Grandpa, I know that you are more timid in your hometown, you obviously want to go back, I know! I've known this since I was a kid! Wang Xuanxuan saw that her grandfather bowed his head and was silent, and said slowly in a soft voice: "There is a word called being more timid in the hometown, but there is also a word called returning to the hometown!" If you go back and can help my two uncles, I think their father, your brother, will be happy in heaven. It's good to take care of the next generation if you can't take care of the previous generation, you say? ”

"But I didn't...... I don't have that ability! Grandpa sighed and said, "I'm going back now, what can I help?" When your uncle left, our family didn't even make up the travel expenses. It is said that two children stood at the entrance of the village, waiting for me every day, looking forward to my return. But I'm an uncle's ......."

Grandpa couldn't cry, a pair of calloused hands covered his face, "I'm sorry for my brother, I'm sorry for the two children!" ”

"Grandpa, who said you can't. You can now! Anything goes! Wang Xuanxuan patted her chest. Isn't it also your credit for the competition of your children and grandchildren? I have money now, a lot, a lot of money, you can go back, you can help them! ”

After speaking, Wang Xuanxuan said to Zhang Min: "Mom, where is the schoolbag I carried?" Give me! ”
